Drone exam · Privacy and data protection

A mapping drone records repeated positions of the same worker's vehicle around a site over several days. Why can those coordinates create a privacy issue even without photographs?

Answer

Repeated location data can reveal where an identifiable person was and how they moved. That can be personal data when the records can be linked to the person or their vehicle.

Explanation

Privacy risk can come from patterns rather than images. A location history may reveal attendance, routines, or associations that a single coordinate would not.
